Recent research published in the journal Applied Psychology demonstrates that personalized diversity training is notably more successful than traditional, one-size-fits-all approaches. By developing an algorithm that identifies psychological profiles or 'personas' of participants, the training system adapts the content in real time to meet individual needs. This tailored approach proved especially effective for skeptics, who showed a more favorable attitude toward diversity initiatives compared to those receiving standard training. Recognizing distinct trainee personas, such as skeptics and believers, highlights the necessity for personalized learning in diversity training programs, moving away from generalized messages.
Diversity training is more effective when it's personalized, according to my new research in the peer-reviewed journal Applied Psychology.
Our algorithm, based on real-world data, identified two personas with empirical backing: skeptics and believers.
